After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

In Ci'an Hall, the old lady was wearing a light blue silk round-necked jacket with a dark green background and floral edging, and a headband inlaid with emeralds on her head. She had a fair face and a plump figure, looking like an old lady from a noble family.

After learning that her most beloved granddaughter had visited the princess's mansion today, stayed there for most of the day, and was personally sent back by someone from the princess's mansion, she couldn't wait to know the truth.

As soon as he heard that she was returning home, he immediately sent someone to pick her up.

The Prime Minister's wife, Mrs. Du, also arrived in time. Although she looked down on the merchant's daughter born to her sister-in-law, this did not prevent her from inquiring about the news of the princess's mansion.

"Greetings to my grandmother!" Yang Ruoyun walked into the hall and was very polite.

The old lady was so happy that she smiled from ear to ear.

After greeting the head of the family, Yang Ruoyun turned to Mrs. Du and said, "How are you, aunt?"

"Hmm!" Mrs. Du gently touched the corner of her lips with a handkerchief. Her eyes seemed extremely calm, but upon closer inspection, one could see a hint of disgust in this calmness.

"How about you go to the princess's mansion today?" The old lady waved her hand, pressed the person next to her, and asked first.

Yang Ruoyun sat down beside the old lady, lowered her eyebrows and replied:

"Grandmother, Her Royal Highness treated her granddaughter very well and didn't make things difficult for her at all. She even said she admired her granddaughter's character and asked her to visit the princess's residence more often when she had nothing to do."

"Oh? Princess Zhaohua really said that?" the old lady asked with surprise in her eyes.

Yang Ruoyun nodded. "Today at the Princess's Mansion, my granddaughter also met the eldest daughter of the Pingning Marquis' Mansion. Miss Zhang said she wanted to open a rouge shop, so my granddaughter decided to join in."

"Then Her Royal Highness the Princess has no objection?" There was a hint of doubt in Mrs. Du's voice.

"His Highness also joined in, saying that everyone has his own way of living. We are doing business in an open and honest manner and have a clear conscience!" Yang Ruoyun replied.

"Well, Your Highness is right. There are millions of people in this world, and each has his or her own way of living," the old lady said in a gentle voice, with a hint of joy. "How much money do you have, child? If you want to invest, your grandmother should support you a little!"

After saying this, the old lady waved her hand and ordered her attentive servant to bring over a brocade box. Inside the box was a stack of banknotes. "These were given to me by your mother out of filial piety in the past. Today I am offering my gratitude to her."

"Grandma, I can't do that," Yang Ruoyun quickly refused. "This is a filial duty owed to my mother. I can't take it. I still have some pocket money, which is enough to invest in a rouge shop."

"Here!" The old lady stuffed the brocade box into Yang Ruoyun's arms and said angrily, "When you interact with the princess, you need to prepare some gifts occasionally. How can you afford to do that if you don't have enough money? Wouldn't this bring shame to our Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Mrs. Du sat aside and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

But when he thought about the fact that this damn girl in front of him was actually connected with Princess Zhaohua, he had to suppress his impatience and forced a smile before he spoke:

"Ruoyun, please accept this quickly. This is a gift from your grandmother. You can't make her sad!"

"Yes...thank you, grandma!" Yang Ruoyun's eyes were slightly red, and she seemed to be extremely moved. The old lady felt distressed by this, and she directly took her into her arms, calling her her darling.

Madam Du took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Ruoyun, when will you visit the princess's residence next time? You can bring your cousin Mingxi along. The two sisters can look after each other!"

Gu Mingxi is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion and also Gu Mingzhe's younger sister.

She just came of age this year.

That is the one who married Xu Yongzhang in the first book "The Road to Success in a Farmer's Family".

But Xu Yongzhang had passed away long ago, and this marriage line was cut off.

She had a younger sister who was only twelve years old and not yet an adult, so Mrs. Du did not mention her.

I just hope that Gu Mingxi can win the favor of Princess Zhaohua like Yang Ruoyun.

Yang Ruoyun sneered inwardly. She was able to hook up with Princess Zhaohua, but that was only possible after she had opened the door with a hundred thousand taels of silver. Gu Mingxi wanted to directly use her connections to make friends with Princess Zhaohua. This was a really good plan.

Don't think she doesn't know that a noble lady from Kyoto like Gu Mingxi initially disdained to make friends with Princess Zhaohua.

The reason was simple, because Princess Zhaohua was His Majesty's illegitimate wife. In their eyes, she was of humble origin, and her shabby air could not be concealed even if she wore a phoenix robe.

But it is different now. His Majesty's love for Princess Zhaohua is growing day by day, and even Princess Zhaoyang can only take a back seat.

Without mentioning anything else, just the fact that His Majesty directly stripped Princess Zhaohua of her title and moved her to the Duke's Mansion, personally brought the princess back home, and personally selected a prince consort for her shows how much His Majesty loves this daughter.

They were dumbfounded now, realizing that Princess Zhaohua was no longer the same person she used to be, and was no longer a noble figure they could reach, so they tried to find a way to get through her.

After all, they were worried about embarrassing themselves if they went to the house rashly.

But even if we know, what can we do?

Who made her live in someone else's house and accept favors from the whole family?

Thinking of this, Yang Ruoyun lowered her eyebrows and smiled gently:

"What are you talking about, aunt? Ruoyun has only just gained Princess Zhaohua's favor, so it's not right for her to rashly bring guests in. Next time, Ruoyun will ask Princess Zhaohua first. If she agrees, then it won't be too late for Ruoyun to bring my cousin there."

Mrs. Du’s breathing stopped!

He instinctively wanted to get angry, but when he thought of Princess Zhaohua's power, he could only suppress his anger.

"Ruoyun's point is reasonable. Auntie, I'd like to ask, do you know what Princess Zhaohua thinks about the selection of a consort?"

What she actually wanted to ask was, has Princess Zhaohua chosen a husband?

Could it be that her son was really chosen?

Yang Ruoyun pondered for a moment before replying:

"His Highness said that she is still young and there is no rush to choose a consort. However, the Spring Examination will be held in three months, and the world's most talented people will gather in Kyoto. If she doesn't choose, His Majesty will choose for her."

"She can only postpone it for three months at most. Only then will the matter of the Prince Consort be made clear!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Du knew that her son had no hope for the time being and she no longer had to worry, but she still felt bad.

I heard that His Majesty was in the princess's residence that day and asked Princess Zhaohua to choose a prince consort. Her son was present, but he was unable to impress Princess Zhaohua.

Her son is such a handsome and handsome man. Princess Zhaohua is truly blind!

Forget it, I never wanted Mingzhe to be a prince consort in the first place.

But she was not selected and was put in solitary confinement by her own husband. It sounds unbelievable no matter how you look at it.

Princess Zhaohua did not fall, but her son did.

This useless guy acts like he has never seen a woman before.

Mrs. Du thought about it again and again and decided to pick two more beautiful maids and send them to her son's room. She must let her know that there are more beauties in the world than just Princess Zhaohua.
